In this insightful and engaging session, we will explore how trauma and stress impact both the brain and the body. We will examine the personal implications of self-awareness, while addressing the importance of understanding others, how understanding leads to improved application of trauma-informed approaches, and identify specific strategies for increased self-regulation and trauma healing.
